Democraps are an ungodly menagerie of com/symp socialist crooks, sex perverts, baby killers, treasonous unpatriotic cut and run weak kneed enemy coddler's, trial lawyers, satanist/atheists, and imbeciles.

They don't have any values.

He declared himself in in 1988 - but his campaign lasted about a week.

"Sure, abortion on demand regardless of age. Higher taxes. Caving in to terrorists. More taxes. More entitlements. Of course, more taxes"

but it's all for "the common good". you just don't understand.

Mr. Hartpence is characteristically mistaken. The Dems have a whole raft of abstractions they claim - that is not, to be sure, the same as principles - in fact, they claim all of the noble ones as their own whether they conflict or not. One reason they have so little in the way of practical policies to suggest at the moment is that one intended to satisfy, say, peace for example, doesn't work very well with respect to freedom, which they're also for. You can see the problem with this - it's a giant cosmic game of wanting to have one's cake and eat it too. And so they pound the "principles" and hope that's good enough.

It isn't. The game works this way - "I'm for justice because liberals are for justice; he's a conservative, therefore he's against justice." That is not a philosophical position or even a political statement, it's a marketing ploy, and a second-rate one at that.

Actually, that is a pretty good description.

If conservatives are going to stay at home for this election then they personally will have blood on their hands. Taking a stand means taking a stand....not when it is easy or convenient. We all hate some of the things that this administration has done but exactly what it would have been like under Gore of Kerry is unfathimable.

RISE UP STRONG CONSERVATIVES!! This is the place to draw a line in the sand. This is the place to fight. If we waiver or if we are tired or timid, the forces of retreat and defeat will catch us.

RISE UP.....VOTE TOMORROW!!!!! DRAG YOUR MOM/DAD/FRIEND/et al to the early voting places.

Do-Goodery is not a principal its a failed mind set. Leave us alone. Its our money, its my gun, its my family and I will raise them. We do not want to be controlled by political correctness. Because of YOU..My boy cannot play Dodge Ball, the boy scouts must defend themselves, I have to press one for English. The liberal mind has destroyed this country and for that we hold you responsible and all the lies and deceit you throw at us only emboldens us to commit to your demise as a party and a thought process.

For four years they've been publicly arguing in abstraction about what abstractions they should embrace, or are about, or should return to.

Once they've solved that they will turn to what issues they should embrace, then later what their positions should be on those issues, but I think they'll fall back to arguing about abstractions.

Former U.S. Sen. Gary) Hart: Dems Should Revisit Their Principles

That's what's funny about Democrats. They don't have principles. They keep them locked away to revisit them from time-to-time. They may take them out once in a while to show people they really have one or two, but then squirrel them away for the next election season.

The only way you can RE-VISIT them - you needed to have them to begin with. Sadly .. the dems don't qualify.

And .. Gary's a fine one to be talking about principles.

"Dems Should Revisit Their Principles."

Well, I guess their principles should share some of the blame.
